The inspiration

As some of you may know i made a map called Banshee Bundle (my most downloaded map to date) a while back. It was the FIRST of its kind to work properly as a banshee race map (2). It was good fun but i wasn't happy with it. Because it was made as an experiment to see if the concept was worth building upon i didn't bother with aesthetics or worry too much about the path that the banshees took. The experiment turned out to be very successful with minor misunderstandings about the game that i cleared up and i hope i will explain fully this time around. So, because of this success i have descided to make a better banshee race map called, Banshee Tango.

How the game works

Everyone needs to be on indervidual teams.
They have to try and be the first to the point each time.
The first to 50 points wins (5 clean laps uncontested).
You need to boost as much as posible to win, this means lining up points for minimum turning, just like a mongoose track.
The game is very similar to rocket race in many ways , just in a structured path.

Information about the concept and gameplay.

Cutting in and cutting conrers is NOT cheating, it is intentional so nobody is left out.
There should be no deaths in the game, for Health and Safety reasons the Guardians are off, you do no damage so dying can only happen by assination and you are all in vehicles so this does not happen,if you are using SKYRACETRACKSV2 or later you will not die from boosting into a post (this was a problem with SKYRACETRACKS). It is also in the floor level, this means you cannot fall through the floor like the its sky bubble counterparts.
It has been pointed out that the banshee flying engine on Halo 3 is not amazing, to combat this i have made the track accomodate this, the corners are just right for banshee in a hurry.
The Go-To-Points are slightly smaller than on the original Banshee Bundle so there is a little more skill involved.

The gametype

Nobody deals damage and everyone is invulnerable.
First to 50 points wins.
Points move in order and on arrival.
Vehicles are indestructable.

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy the map. It is very similar to Banshee Bundle but I reccommend you download this one instead of it because it is better in pretty much every way.
